Targeting of recombinant Na+/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) to the apical membrane

Abstract: A full-length Na'/glucose cotransporter cDNA (SGLTl) from rabbit intestine was subcloned into the pMAMneo mammalian expression vector and transfected by Ca'+ precipitation into Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Stable MDCK transfectants isolated after clonal isolation and selection in G418 exhibited dexamethasone-inducible Na'/glucose cotransport activity under regulation of the MMTV promoter of the vector. Transfectants expressed the recombinant 75 kDa Na'lglucose cotransporter subunit as shown by Weste… Show more

“…The identity of the amino acid sequences of the ovine parotid and intestinal proteins directed to the opposite poles of the epithelial cells must indicate that there is no inherent targeting signal present within the protein structure. This conclusion conflicts with that drawn by Kong et al [8]. These authors inserted the entire rabbit SGLT1 cDNA into a mammalian expression vector and demonstrated that when this vector was used to transfect MDCK cells, SGLT1 activity was expressed.…”

“…In rabbits, the kidney and intestinal apically located SGLT1 proteins appear to arise from a single gene [7]. It has been concluded that the information for targeting the rabbit intestinal SGLT1 protein to the apical membrane is contained in the primary amino acid sequence of the SGLT1 protein [8]. The location of the Na+-dependent D-glucose symporter on the basal membrane of the secretory acinar cells of the parotid gland presents an opportunity to investigate the mechanism(s) whereby the apically and the basally located proteins are targeted to these two different domains of the plasma membrane.…”

“…Cells were grown in 10 cm dishes and prepared as reported [19]. In brief, cells were washed with PBS once, then solubilized in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8, 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide, 100 g/ml PMSF, 1 g/ml aprotinin, 1% Triton X) and harvested.…”

“…The separated proteins were transferred to Immobilon membranes (Millipore, Eschborn, Germany) using an electroblotting system (BioRad, München, Germany). The filters were blocked for two hours at room temperature with 5% dry milk and 0.05% Tween 20 (Flika, Buchs, Switzerland) in Tris-buffered saline and incubated with antibodies specific for GLUT1 and GLUT3 [19] (East Acres, Wak Chemie, Bad Homburg, Germany) at a concentration of 1:800 and 1:500 respectivley. Visualization of bound antibodies was carried out with the ECL system (Amersham).…”

“…Which parts of the proteins are involved in Na ϩ and sugar binding? To begin to answer these important questions, we generated a chimeric DNA-construct corresponding to amino acids 1-380, which form the putative transmembrane helices 1-8 of pSGLT2, and amino acids 381-662 (which form putative helices 9 -14) of pSGLT1 (19) (20). The product of this three-fragment ligation was a chimeric sequence, coding for amino acids 1-380 from pig SGLT2 and amino acids 381-662 from pig SGLT1 (2.4-kilobase BamHI/XhoI coding fragment).…”
